Disappointing Experience
Disappointing Experience – Misleading Information & Terrible Communication I placed an order for the Masterbuilt Gravity Series XT Digital Charcoal Grill and Smoker on 07/07/25, based on the information provided on bbqgrills.com. Their website clearly stated that the grill was in stock and ready to ship, with most items shipping within 24-48 hours and a maximum of 5-7 days for delivery. This sounded great, and I was excited to get my grill quickly. Fast forward to 07/19/25, and after hearing nothing, I reached out to get an update. On 07/21/25, I received an apology email stating that their warehouse had been inundated with orders for Masterbuilt products (not my problem) and their inventory had been depleted. Oddly enough, the website still shows this grill as “in stock and ready to ship,” but at a $300 increase in price. Clearly, something is off. The email went on to say that they were working to ship all Masterbuilt orders within 7-10 days. However, at this point, my order is still stuck at "processing" with no indication of when it will actually ship. I’m extremely disappointed by this experience. bbqgrills.com misled me by advertising the grill as in stock and ready to ship, when in fact, they didn’t have it. Not only that, they followed up with a second misleading response, providing no clarity on when I could expect my order. It seems like they underpriced the grill just to get orders and then couldn’t fulfill them at that price. Now, other retailers have the same product (at a higher cost), but at least they're being honest about availability. It honestly feels like they want me to cancel my order, so they don't have to honor the original price. This experience has left me frustrated, and I won’t be ordering from bbqgrills.com again. Terrible customer service and deceptive practices all around. Avoid at all costs.
